Austria to Burundi visa requirements

Austrian passport holders need a visa for Burundi. The recommended option is the eVisa via the official portal migration.gov.bi (around USD 90 for a 1-month single or multiple-entry tourist visa, processed in about 3 working days). Visa on arrival is also available at Bujumbura's Melchior Ndadaye International Airport. A yellow fever vaccination certificate is required. There is no visa-free access for Austrian (ordinary passport) travelers to Burundi. Burundi extends visa-free entry only to six regional partners (DR Congo, Kenya, Rwanda, South Sudan, Tanzania, Uganda), so Austrians must obtain a visa. Two practical channels exist for a short tourist visit: an eVisa applied for online through the General Commissariat for Migration (migration.gov.bi), and a visa on arrival at Bujumbura's Melchior Ndadaye International Airport (and at land borders for up to one month). The eVisa is the recommended route because it avoids airport delays and confirms entry before travel; a 1-month single-entry visa costs USD 90 and a 1-month multiple-entry visa (renewable, max 90 days stay) is also USD 90, with a USD 40 / 72-hour transit visa available. Processing is typically up to 3 working days. The passport must be valid for at least six months beyond intended stay, and travelers must show proof of onward/return travel and accommodation. A yellow fever vaccination certificate is required for entry to Burundi. Fees are payable in USD or EUR.
